SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY

QUOTE OF THE DAY
John Taylor

"We must humble ourselves before the Lord, repenting of our sins, and henceforth preserve our bodies and spirits pure, that we may be fit receptacles for the Spirit of the living God, and be guided by him in all our labors both for the living and the dead. Our desires must be for God and his righteousness" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: John Taylor, p. 149).

 
LDS QUOTE MEMES

This quote is from Sister Linds K. Burton helping each other be who we need to be.
 
  

The Lord also issued a severe scolding to the Church members in general. They claimed that they had repented when they had not. Many of them wanted to run the law of consecration according to their own selfish and greedy desires.They also wanted to bend the rules to suit themselves, and would not support Bishop Partridge in the decisions he made as their ecclesiastical leader
